Download or read book Mixed Motives and their Realization in Derived Categories written by Annette Huber and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006-11-17 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conjectural theory of mixed motives would be a universal cohomology theory in arithmetic algebraic geometry. The monograph describes the approach to motives via their well-defined realizations. This includes a review of several known cohomology theories. A new absolute cohomology is introduced and studied. The book assumes knowledge of the standard cohomological techniques in algebraic geometry as well as K-theory. So the monograph is primarily intended for researchers. Advanced graduate students can use it as a guide to the literature.
